There are many memories of Sandy we have in the short time knowing her and Art. Her infectious laughter was one of her most remembered; Others include: always a friendly wave, sharing fresh baked goods, holiday wishes and decorations were our prize from her.
We always enjoyed her political, personal and weather discussions.
Our condolences go out to her family, especially Art, for such an early loss.
Bless you
